Ties with Dare To Be Stupid, Polka Party!, and the UHF soundtrack as having the fewest number of parodies of any ALbum, four.

Debuted at #61 in Billboard. It would stay on the "Billboard 200" chart for twenty-four weeks (not counting two weeks during that span in which the album didn't even make the chart).

Early versions of the cover artwork had a red background to better resemble the Jurassic Park logo. The design was later changed to feature a yellow background out of fear that retail shoppers would confuse Alapalooza with the Jurassic Park movie soundtrack, despite the fact that Alapalooza had a sticker reading "No, this is NOT the 'Jurassic Park' soundtrack" glued to the shrinkwrap. (see pics) When Warner/Elektra/Atlantic reissued Alapalooza in mid-1996, the original red-background artwork started to resurface.

The only ALbum that contains a "polka medley" consisting of just one song.

Released in Japan on November 19, 1993. The Japanese version contains an additional bonus track of Al singing "Jurassic Park" entirely in Japanese!

ALbum title/song connection: The cover is a parody of the Jurassic Park movie logo, while the film is both the title and subject of the lead-off single. The album's title, however, can be traced back to the first MuchMusic AlMusic in 1992, specifically when Al is listing upcoming concert dates.

The first ALbum with a lead-off parody single that is not based on a current hit song.

The oldest song on this album is "Waffle King," first recorded in 1990 during the fierce Off The Deep End sessions.
